The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 1157 - 444: Mu Yi Advancement_3

It was just a simple silhouette, yet it gave a sense that it was unfathomably deep.

That feeling as if there wasn’t a single flaw to exploit throughout its entire form... so terrifying! What kind of monster is this?!

"Boom!!"

Mu Yi Hanba threw a punch, and before his fist even touched flesh, the force of it had already sliced through the Four-Tusked Walrus Demon’s skin.

In an instant, he unleashed "Devour."

The burst of intense heat that followed didn’t affect the surroundings but instead radiated along the trunk and limbs of the Four-Tusked Walrus Demon.

"Aow!!!"

The Four-Tusked Walrus Demon spasmed in pain, its thick neck uncontrollably drooping to the ground.

Yet, still being a seasoned Demon King even in its agony and with its vitality being sapped, it retaliated with a "Counter Head Hammer," aiming to bust open Mu Yi Hanba’s head.

"Bang!!"

Mu Yi Hanba was unable to switch his ghostly soul form and barely shifted half a meter.

He avoided the core impact, but the remaining force still burst his body open, and dark blue zombie blood spurted out.

Successfully hit, the Four-Tusked Walrus Demon glared furiously, thrusting its tusks towards Mu Yi again.

This was its most critical killing move. If it landed, the outcome would be instantly determined.

"Ssss! Ssss! Ssss!"

In what felt like a delayed reaction but was a fast act, Mu Yi dodged backward and darted like lightning into the belly of the Four-Tusked Walrus Demon.

There he tore it open. Given his body size, if he just burrowed in and destroyed one organ after another, no vitality could withstand him.

"Seeking death!"

The Four-Tusked Walrus Demon inhaled sharply, the strong air current pulling at Mu Yi, trying to suck him into its mouth to crush him with its teeth.

Mu Yi countered with a Whip Leg, suddenly flipping onto the demon’s back, his zombie claws tearing open a second wound.

"Rip! Rip!"

"Ssss! Ssss! Ssss!!"

Mu Yi was successful. He burrowed halfway in, continually activating Devour, insatiably sapping life force.

Initially, the Four-Tusked Walrus Demon struggled, but its most threatening tusks couldn’t touch Mu Yi. It was merely the thrashing of a trapped beast.

Under Bana’s nearly stupefied gaze, one zombie and one demon battled for five hundred rounds.

They fought from the muddy ground to the sky, and from the sky back to the ground, utterly rupturing the ecological structure along the way.

Finally, with a burst from Mu Yi, he emerged through the ruptured belly of the Four-Tusked Walrus Demon.

His body furiously expanded, muscles bulging and concentrating in his right arm.

"Boom, boom, boom—"

It was an invincible punch, just one punch, leaving a hundred-meter-wide hole in the chest of the Four-Tusked Walrus Demon.

At the edges, no blood oozed out; evaporated by the high temperature, the blood mist rose into the sky, eventually forming a cloud of blood.

When the blood rain poured down, the frozen demon and zombie both regained their abilities to move.

One slowly withdrew his fist, his body gradually shrinking, returning to his original form.

The other, its pupils rupturing, the last flicker of life utterly unable to sustain in its shattered body.

It collapsed thunderously, like a giant tree felled by a fierce beast, sprawling across the blood-mudded ground.

As its roots broke, despite the outer appearance of flesh, no trace of life lingered at the core.

The Four-Tusked Walrus Demon... deceased!

Mu Yi Hanba had taken less than an hour to rise through two minor ranks, slaying a Supreme Holy Completion Demon King!

"Hu—inhale—"

With the fight concluded, the battlefield was dead quiet.

Mr. Ye remained as calm as ever, Ye Liuying smiling softly.

They both knew of Mu Yi’s origin and had expectations for his combat prowess.

The only one unaware was Bana; she was a human from the Realm of Desire, a realm that had long forgotten what a Hanba was.

Her mouth agape, it could have fit two eggs comfortably.

If one were to poke her cheek, even pressing deep red spots, she’d show no reaction.

Was that a victory?

She thought it would be Mo participating in the battle, suppressing with his superior divinity.

But he hadn’t taken action at all. Mr. Ye merely provided an enhancement of Ability, and the rest was all the Corpse Race’s lone slaughter.

The whole process seemed like an adult bullying a child.

Even though the child had a dangerous weapon, the adult remained composed throughout.

Ultimately, he definitively ended the fight with absolute skill and keen insight—the gap between victory and defeat insurmountable.

"Click!"

A faint golden light rippled over Mu Yi’s body.

He closed his eyes, savoring this moment of tranquility.

Then, localized remaining wounds also rapidly healed with the help of the Flesh Furnace and his natural recovery ability.

"Wow, did Grandpa Mu Yi really advance?"

"His upgrade speed is so fast, with Supreme Saint Great Achievement and Big Tadpole’s Ability, even the Supreme Holy Completion of the Divine Trace Lineage should be a piece of cake, right?"

GuaGua, having slipped away midway through the fight, suddenly popped out from the mud.

It transformed into a snake, with a large wrapped object tied to its tail, huffing and puffing as it dragged the heavy load.

After expressing its amazement, GuaGua immediately shouted to Mr. Ye:

"Big Tadpole, look, is this the ’Pillow of Laziness’?"

"I found it in the Great Marshal Demon’s Den, worried it might get damaged in the fight, so I quickly stole it out!"
